NOVEL NEXT Chapter 13
Seeing that Xiao Yun was embarrassed to speak, Gu Cheng stopped asking.
He pointed to a purple flower not far away and asked:
"Do you know what this is?"
"This is the Nebula Flower, one of the main materials for refining the 'Qi Ling Dan'."
Xiao Yun introduced it like a treasure:
"Its flower fragrance has the effect of refreshing the mind, and can slightly improve the warrior's comprehension. Even if the monster smells it for a long time, it can also improve a certain degree of intelligence..."
"Improve comprehension? So powerful?"
Gu Cheng's eyes lit up, and he walked quickly to the Nebula Flower.
The previous few krypton life trainings have made him deeply realize the importance of 'comprehension'.
If he can improve his comprehension with external objects, it will be a great help to him!
"That's right, it's just that this enhancement effect is a bit useless."
Xiao Yun followed behind slowly and continued:
"The fragrance of the nebula flower takes a long time to take effect, and it is only effective for those with mediocre qualifications. The higher the talent of the warrior, the less obvious its effect on improving comprehension."
"A martial arts genius like you, Lord Gu, is naturally useless."
"So in my opinion, it is most practical for you to take it directly to the pharmacy to exchange for money after picking it."
A hint of reluctance flashed in Xiao Yun's eyes, but he didn't get too entangled.
After all, in his opinion, his life was saved by Gu Cheng.
No matter how precious this spiritual flower is, it should belong to the other party.
"Martial arts genius? Tsk, this sounds really weird..."
Gu Cheng pulled the corner of his mouth, feeling very subtle.
He is still very confident about his martial arts talent.
If what Xiao Yun said is true, then this nebula flower will definitely be of great use to him.
Not to mention that you can become a martial arts genius just by smelling the fragrance.
But as long as there is a slight improvement in understanding, in the time dimension of decades or even hundreds of years, the total bonus effect is also considerable enough.
Gu Cheng pondered for a moment, turned to look at the tall young man beside him, and asked casually:
"Xiao Yun, where did you learn all this knowledge of herbs?"
"This... Your Excellency doesn't know, my father was a wandering doctor in his lifetime, I have been influenced by him since I was a child, and I have read many medical books..."
Xiao Yun's tone was a little erratic.
Wandering doctor?
Will the medical book of wandering doctors record the recipe of nebula flower?
Then your father, a wandering doctor, is really high-end...
Gu Cheng looked at Xiao Yun deeply, and did not continue to ask.
Considering the experience of the other party's parents' death and fleeing from other places.
His younger brother is probably also a person with a lot of stories.
-----------------
Gu Cheng didn't get to eat supper in the end.
It was already the morning of the next day when he took the nebula flower and went down the mountain to ask people to use a cart to transport the two tiger corpses from the mountain to Gaojia Village.
The villagers gathered at the head of the village, looking at the two tiger monster corpses that were torn into pieces, and their brains were a little confused for a while.
Oh my god!
When did the city's police officers become so efficient?
In just one night, they solved the monster problem on the mountain?
The villagers were shocked, and their attitude towards Gu Cheng and Xiao Yun also took a 180-degree turn in an instant.
The chickens, ducks, fish and sheep in the village still couldn't be kept until the New Year. They were slaughtered on the spot by the enthusiastic villagers and given to the two police officers as a thank-you gift.
Gu Cheng was no longer hypocritical because he couldn't refuse the kindness.
He shared the thank-you gift and the tiger monster meat, held a barbecue party, and had a good meal with the villagers.
Until the early morning of the third day.
The two of them set out on the road back to the city amid the villagers' farewell.
"Alas, the fellow villagers are so enthusiastic."
On the way back.
Gu Cheng rode on the old horse, looking at the various local specialties in the saddle bag, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.
In fact, he went up the mountain to kill the monster at the beginning, just for life and merit.
But after receiving the villagers' heartfelt gratitude.
Even as calm as he was, he had to admit it.
This feeling of being admired by thousands of people, worshipped and loved like a hero is actually quite enjoyable.
Back to the Demon Suppression Division Yamen.
Gu Cheng and Xiao Yun carried two tiger monster skins and went straight to the Merit Hall to receive the reward.
Although the strength of the two tiger monsters was a bit weak, they were still Qi and Blood Realm monsters after all.
The faint demonic aura left on the two tiger skins caused the captains of the Demon Suppression Division along the way to look sideways.
The Demon Suppression Division is not small in size, but gossip spreads very quickly.
Within half an incense stick of time.
The glorious deeds of Gu Xiao and his companions going up the mountain to eliminate demons quickly spread.
"Hey, have you guys heard about it?"
A lieutenant lowered his voice and said to his colleagues in a serious tone:
"That new officer, General Gu, killed two tiger monsters in the Qi and Blood Realm in one breath!"
"Who? General Gu? Are you talking about that Gu Cheng?"
"Don't talk nonsense. I believe you that he picked up two girls in one breath. Killing monsters? Can that pretty boy be a monster killer?
He clearly took the credit from Xiao Yun! Didn't you see the wounds on his body? It's obvious that he had gone through a hard battle!"
"But even if it was Xiao Yun, it's impossible for him to kill two tiger monsters in the Qi and Blood Realm at the same time? Do you think he is Lord Lin?"
"Hey, stop guessing, let me tell you the truth!
You didn't see it just now. In addition to the two tiger skins, Xiao Yun also held a pot of spiritual flowers in his hand, with starlight and rich fragrance. It was obviously an unexpected harvest on Baicao Mountain!
Isn't this obvious?
It's obvious that the two tiger monsters fought for the spiritual plant, and both were injured. In the end, Xiao Yun took advantage of the situation! "
"Fuck! This is also possible? What kind of shit luck did he have?"
...
It is said that rumors stop at wise people, but there are often fools in the world.
This strange view, which sounds very outrageous but can roughly justify itself, quickly became the mainstream.
Many lieutenants of the Demon Suppression Division who like to eat melons went directly to the Merit Hall to know the progress of the matter as soon as possible.
The Merit Hall is very efficient.
After all, few people usually go out to kill monsters, let alone come here to exchange merits.
After Gu Cheng handed over the two tiger skins as trophies, he quickly got the reward he wanted.
"Arsenal secret order! "
Rubbing the bronze token in his hand, the young man's mouth curled up slightly.
With this token, he can go to the Demon Suppression Division's arsenal and exchange for any martial arts and skills!
"The Qi and Blood Realm skills have been found, and the remaining life span is about 400 years, and there is another nebula flower to assist. "
"I think my strength will get a qualitative leap again! "
Gu Cheng was so excited that he hurriedly led Xiao Yun out of the Hall of Merit.
As soon as they stepped out of the door.
A stream of curious, suspicious, and jealous eyes were cast at the two from all directions.
Gu Cheng had expected this and walked forward with big strides.
Xiao Yun hesitated for a moment, followed closely with the wooden box containing the nebula flower, and also treated the people around him as air.
After a few days, he had a general understanding of the character of this General Gu.
He was taciturn, did his own thing, and looked aloof and arrogant.
To work under this adult, one must naturally learn to be a little more aloof.
"General Gu, please stay. "
As soon as they crossed the Moon Gate, a group of people came towards them and blocked their way.
The leader was a bearded general, followed by three captains.
The four of them were all tall and strong, and their aura was no less than Xiao Yun.
They didn't come with good intentions...
The crowd around them were excited and showed expressions of watching a good show.
